Kiddush Club - News for Jews

As suspected, the pager attack was the first volley in Israel's wider objective in restoring security in the North and returning citizens to their homes there. Hezbollah has promised a strong retaliation. In this episode we break down all of the recent events and talk about our thoughts on next steps. Per our usual arrangement we bring the latest updates in the US Presidential Election, as well as...

On top of that, this week we discuss the second assassination attempt, the debat...

The High Holidays are fast approaching, and we're getting in gear here at KC. One doesn't have to look hard today, unfortunately, to see how much Rachamei Shmayim are needed for all of Klal Yisrael. Just in the last 2 weeks, we lost 2 Gedolei Yisroel, more innocent Jews were murdered, and anti-Semitism is again in full view all over the world and on college campuses. Never fear: we do as always br...

It's almost a year since October 7th, and in that year there have been many ups and downs. The news that came over the weekend of the IDF getting so close to rescuing six hostages from Gaza, only to find they had been murdered, hit all of Klal Yisrael especially hard.  Still, Am Yisrael Chai - as we've said, we know how the story ends, and so we keep the faith - always. We will not break! We also...

Hezbollah finally retaliated, but not before Israel could preemptively strike a huge number of their missile launchers. Still, the retaliation did come, and the major victims were many. And they were chickens. Actual chickens. In good news the IDF rescued another hostage that they found alone and gaunt in a terror tunnel, and he is recovering nicely. In the US, it was a huge week for Team Trump wi...

It has been a tense week as Klal Yisrael awaits a potential response from Iran, and we remain on edge as Tisha B'av approaches. Still, we can still get a sense of pride when Israel, a tiny little country with a tiny population, pulls ahead of tens of Arab countries in medal count! In addition to the Olympics coverage, we talk about the major news of the week including the Russian prisoner swap, Ka...

Well they tried to have us forcefully removed but short of calling the cops, once we got in we weren't going to leave - at least not without taking their Youtube congratulatory plaque. Eli and Yaakov Langer from Living L'chaim have transformed the online Jewish world with their podcasts, among them Inspiration for the Nation and Kosher Money, but they're also great guys and we had a blast hanging...

As the country continues to reel from the attempted assassination of President Trump, we decided that with all of the theories and facts swirling about, our best bet to making sense of it all was to bring back our friend, ex-Secret Service commander, sniper and special forces member, Nidal Ghaneem.

Also in this episode we explore the latest peace propos...

But never fear listeners: a note from one of the Gedolei Yisroel clues us in on the real support the IDF receives! This week brings back (finally!) our airlines segment that you've all been waiting...

The news is literally writing our show for us! We can sit back and watch newscasters talk about Eli Copter, and Congresspeople talking to each other like they're on the street getting ready to fight it out. Such is this week. Coveri...
